Lipophosphoglycan is a subfield of Leishmania major that Salvatore J. Turco tackles.
His Leishmania research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mutant, Infectivity, Macrophage, Secretory pathway and Virulence.
In general Microbiology study, his work on Protozoa often relates to the realm of Axenic, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
He focuses mostly in the field of Leishmania donovani, narrowing it down to matters related to In vitro and, in some cases, Protein phosphorylation, MARCKS and Phosphorylation.
His work carried out in the field of Glycoconjugate brings together such families of science as Galactose Metabolism and Metabolism.
His most cited work include:
- The lipophosphoglycan of Leishmania parasites (421 citations)
- Lipophosphoglycan is a virulence factor distinct from related glycoconjugates in the protozoan parasite Leishmania major (262 citations)
- Use of the green fluorescent protein as a marker in transfected Leishmania. (236 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Lipophosphoglycan, Leishmania, Biochemistry, Glycoconjugate and Leishmania donovani.
His research integrates issues of Cell biology, Mutant, Microbiology and Virulence in his study of Lipophosphoglycan.
His study looks at the intersection of Microbiology and topics like Leishmania braziliensis with Innate immune system.
His work on Amastigote as part of general Leishmania study is frequently linked to Midgut, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His Glycoconjugate study combines topics in areas such as Glycolipid, Disaccharide, Phosphatidylinositol and Biosynthesis.
Salvatore J. Turco interconnects Epitope, Phagocytosis and Intracellular in the investigation of issues within Leishmania donovani.
